With 5ms will it be good for crysis

Any advice will help... My tech level is low so talk slow and steady

Also I forgot that i upgarded the graphics card to a Nvidia GEforce 8600GT with 1gb graphics memory

Where do i go to do that?

if you can't work that out, you wont be able to build your own computer
its simple mercy that i wont tell you

Don bother buying a new monitor, it wont help with smoothness.

Get the best gfx card you can afford for that system and play at a low res and lowest settings and you may be ok. But be warned the game WILL look like crap, you will not even get smooth gfx at a farcry 1 standard.

If I was advising you, it would be to buy a FAST new machine with a good gfx card (4850,4870,260,280,4870x2), the pc you have now is ok for home office stuff but far too dated for the latest generation games.

^^ Bad day? Some people are just a bit thick, I like to try to give the benefit of the doubt.

How else do you expect to handle those Advanced Physics effects?!!!1

Is that metric or imperial......

depeding on how you take a GB...

"The usage of the word "gigabyte" is ambiguous: the value depends on the context. When referring to RAM sizes and file sizes, it traditionally has a binary definition, of 10243 bytes. When referring to disk storage capacities and the transmission of data over telecommunication lines, it means exactly 10003 bytes, since the prefix "giga-" refers to 1000 "megas". In order to address this confusion, currently the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) promotes the use of the term "gibibyte" for the binary definition. This position is endorsed by other standards organizations including the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), the International Committee for Weights and Measures (CPIM) and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).

It is commonly abbreviated GB or Gbyte (not to be confused with Gb, which is used for a gigabit)."

Trust in google, for he is wise: 4 megabits = 524 288 bytes
